Brian Robiskie
-
I just keep thinking that Robiskie is just too slow. If the guy was a late rounder, or undrafted free agent it wouldn't matter, but I hated using a #2 on him.
I hope the hell that I am wrong.
I don't see him being crafty like Joe J., I seem to remember him running long, slow, drawn-out fly patterns at OSU where the offense had 7-seconds to wait for the play to form.

I certainly don't think Robiskie will stretch the field like he did at OSU for the reason you stated. But Robiskie's 40 times aren't bad. The question becomes can Brian get seperation at the NFL level. I think he can, in the JJ style like you said.
-
Did you guys know that Robiskie ran a faster 40 than Braylon and Anquan Boldin. Plus he's just as tall as BE, jst doesn't have that crazy vertical.
I think alot of people will b surprised by robiskie, he's the second fastest reciever on the team

Current 3-1 or better teams:
(go to guy has at least 5 more touches than anyone else on the team)
NY Giants - Steve Smith is the go to (34 catches)
Minnesota - NO go to guy
Chicago - NO go to guy
New Orleans - NO go to guy
San Francisco - NO go to guy
NY Jets - Cotchery (23 catches)
New England - Randy Moss (29 catches)
Baltimore - NO go to guy
Cincinnati - NO go to guy
Indianapolis - NO go to guy (or 2 if you go Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark with 26)
Denver - Brandon Marshall (16)
So, out of the 11 teams that are 3-1 or better, only 4 (5 if you count Indy) have a go to guy at this point in the season.

I think for him to be successful he WILL have to "crafty" like Joe J. And I am not sure that he cannot be that way. Numerous great receivers were not great speedsters. You remember Chris Carter, "all he did was catch touchdowns".
RoBo has the background to be a successful possession receiver. And he is only a rookie who has played in what? 1-2 games? The "crafty" receivers always take longer to develop than the "speed" guys......he may yet be OK.

You know as well as I do you can't go stricktly by number of catches.
Cinci has their guy for now in Ocho Cinco
Wayne is the go to guy in Indy and that shows when they need a big play in the passing game.

Point is, raw speed does NOT mean you will be successful. 24 of the 29 WR's that posted faster times than MoMass have fewer receptions. So, speed alone is NOT the key....and ROBO still posted a faster time than MoMass (ranked 8th in rookie receptions)

Dude, your numbers are off
I have multiple sources saying Robiskie Runs a 4.47, the fastest he's ever ran, a 4.37, and the slowest a 4.61
He has inconsistent speed, but he's FAST

Everyone has him between 4.46 and 4.49

Um, those are not MY numbers...they are from the OFFICIAL NFL COMBINE website.

Those 40-times don't mean much to me. I believe Robo ran the best times of his life at the combine.
I'm going by what I've seen, and football speed, and the word'crafty' don't fit in unless you use it as "He ain't crafty".
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt though and a chance to show us ... it's just my concern going in that he don't have NFL speed or crafty enough to play without the ball. He has great hands though, you can tell his old man must not have screwed him up like our past WR's.

Maybe he will turn into another Brian Brennan.... I always remember him coming in on 3rd down and always coming up with the clutch catch, never dropping anything, and never wore gloves...
